Start Key in #Aut Mode

  • I need to know system variable for emulating of pressing Start Key twice (BCO) in #Aut Mode.


    Actually I need to run the program already selected and opened in #Aut mode.


    Do I need to make extra wiring on X11? Or is there any system variable for pressing Start Key twice in #Aut Mode?


    KRC Type: KRC1 / KRC2


    Thanks

  • pinned topic READ FIRST explains how and where to find documentation.
    what you are after is in System Integrator manual

    1) read pinned topic: READ FIRST...

    2) if you have an issue with robot, post question in the correct forum section... do NOT contact me directly

    3) read 1 and 2


  • Did you managed to find your answer by any chance 4u?




    Impossible.
    Use mode #ext and I/O instead.


    IS it possible to send start command instead on pressing startkey from the controlpanel? for KSS v4.4.1, KRC3 control panel and robot KR3

    I looked that document @PanicMode but could not find how to send startkey signal to start program from PLC instead of pressing key on controlpanel. ???
    Is it possible? And it is different from the $EXT_START right?



    THANKS

    KRC supports up to 4 modes:


    T1 = manual mode, reduced velocity
    T2 = manual mode
    AUT = auto mode
    EXT = auto external


    in first three modes, all control is done by human operator (select program, enable drive, confirm messages, start program...). therefore all of those functions are some ort button that human can operate.


    in EXT mode control is done by some computer (PLC). signals used to enable drives, confirm messages, start program etc are mapped to I/O so that PLC can do it's job.


    the key point here is .... the ONLY way you can have external start signal start robot program is by using EXT mode. in all other modes - human touch is needed...


    "pressing twice" start key in AUT mode is due to BCO. all of this is well documented so i don't intend to elaborate...

    I think all these three variables must be set to TRUE


    $DRIVES_ON = $IN[140]
    $CONF_MESS = $IN[1026]
    $EXT_START = $IN[1026]


  • I could not find a solution yet. I need a little help about configuration.


    I am looking at this
    http://toychest.ai.uni-bremen.de/wiki/projects:kuka_lwr


    But, it does not work. Still trying for #Ext mode.





    Of course not... that is completely different platform.
    LBR is a collaborative robot running Sunrise OS. Your KRC1/KRC2 is running KSS.

    good try but that is wrong.
    also it will have no effect on robot in AUT mode

    Edited once, last by panic mode ().
